About the Item

The Sybil The oracle's mouth is covered, unable to explain anything to you. His whole body is rigidly encased in the block immobilized against his will. Germán Consetti proposes works of art as elements for self-knowledge. He unites the formal and aesthetic search in sculpture with a strong conceptual significance to claim a new space in contemporary art. This position is not new in the history of art, great artists have gone through this search for self-knowledge through the work of art, from the first representations in the Neolithic to the evocative force of symbolism or abstraction in modern art. For Consetti, the definition of the artistic work is born from the dialogue between the creator and the work's own consciousness. The intentionality that permeates the formless matter activates the manifested object. The artist interpellates the observer with universal questions that have been impregnated in the work and that offer the spectator points of resonance with the transcendent. Germán Consetti was born in Río Cuarto, Argentina, in 1975. He has lived and worked in Barcelona since 2000.

  • Abyssal Shrines
    By Sarah Louise Davey
    Located in Philadelphia, PA
    This is an original, unique ceramic sculpture by Sarah Louise Davey on a black wooden base. The piece measures 44” x 19” x 21”. Please note: This piece is pictured with the base on top of a black pedestal and a white pedestal. The black base of the sculpture is included, but the pedestals are not included. Artist Statement: "The art of making, for me, is very much a response to the human condition of needing to connect to one another, as well as to what lies just beyond the borders of our realities. I am drawn to the idea that art can have the ability to affect those who look upon it, allowing these portraits to be conduits to a realm within our subconscious. Although my females are hard ceramic sculptures, their hollow, eggshell-like interiors feel like a glove or a mask that can easily be slipped on and off, like the psychic armor of a distant self. An introspective dialogue is started as I make each piece, invoking a surreal understanding of the physical and emotional auras of these strange beauties. Heavy in symbolism, they illustrate the psychological scope of a hybrid creature. Their wide-eyed gazes are meant to portray an emotional duality that is constantly evolving. Some are alter egos of women on the verge...
